김정은 북한 국방위원회 제1위원장이 김일성 주석 사망 21주기인 8일 김일성 주석의 시신이 안치된 금수산태양궁전을 참배했다.
북한 조선중앙통신은 김정은 제1위원장이 이날 0시 인민군 간부들을 대동하고 금수산태양궁전을 찾아 김일성 주석과 김정일 국방위원장의 시신과 입상 앞에서 인 사했다고 보도했다.
참배에는 황병서 군 총정치국장, 박영식 대장, 리영길 총참모장, 김원홍 국가안 전보위부장, 노광철 부총참모장, 서홍찬 인민무력부 제1부부장, 조남진 당 중앙위원 회 부부장, 렴철성 총정치국 선전부국장 등이 수행했다.
김일성 주석과 김정일 국방위원장의 입상 옆에는 당기와 공화국기, 군기들이 세 워져 있었고 조선인민군 육군, 해군, 항공 및 반항공군(공군), 노농적위군 명예위병 대가 정렬해 있었다.
중앙통신은 "참가자들은 김일성 주석과 김정일 국방위원장을 높이 모시고 김정 은 동지의 영도를 받들어 백두에서 개척된 주체혁명 위업, 선군혁명 위업을 끝까지 완성하는데 적극 이바지할 불타는 맹세를 다지였다"고 전했다.
김정은 제1위원장은 집권 첫해인 지난 2012년부터 4년 연속 김일성 주석의 기일 에 금수산태양궁전을 참배했으며 지난해 20주기 때는 다리를 절룩이는 모습으로 참 석했다.
김정은 제1위원장이 군 고위 간부들을 대동하고 금수산태양궁전을 찾은 것은 '선군정치'를 재확인하고 군부의 충성을 유도해 북한의 체제 안정을 다지려는 의도로 보인다. (연합)

N. Korea leader pays tribute to late founder on anniversary
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un paid tribute to his grandfather Kim Il-sung on Wednesday to commemorate the 21st anniversary of the death of the state founder, the North's official media said.
Accompanied by senior military officials, the North's young leader visited the Kumsusan Palace of the Sun at midnight where the embalmed body of his grandfather entombed, according to the Korean Central News Agency. He died in 1994.
Kim has visited the Kim Il-sung mausoleum in Pyongyang on the death anniversary of the state founder every year since he took power in late 2011 following the sudden death of his father Kim Jong-il. Last year, he took part in the anniversary event while slightly limping, spawning speculation about health problems.
The anniversary came amid reports that about 10 mid-ranking North Korean party officials have sought asylum out of fears of being purged as the North's leader is intensifying his so-called reign of terror.
Kim, who is widely viewed as consolidating his power, has stressed that his regime will pursue dual goals of developing nuclear weapons and boosting its fragile economy.
South Korea's state spy agency earlier said that Kim has tightened his grip on his power base in a brutal way, including the execution of about 70 senior officials.
In late 2013, the North's leader ordered the execution of Jang Song-thaek, the husband of Kim's aunt and once the country's second most powerful official, on charges of treason. The North's former defense chief Hyun Yong-chol is believed to have been executed in April for his disloyalty toward Kim.
At the ceremony, Kim's entourage included Hwang Pyong-so, director of the general political department of the Korean People's Army, and Pak Yong-sik, who is presumed to be the North's new defense chief. (Yonhap)
